Astrochimp
Astrochimp
Also known as: Astro Chimp
Overview
Astrochimp is a slightly indica dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing the potent Gorilla Glue #4 X Alien Rift #6 strains by Ocean Grown Seeds. This strain was developed as part of Ocean Grown Seeds' artisanal breeding program, which has been founded in 2008, specializing in high-quality medical cannabis genetics. The cross combines the GG #4 with Alien Rift #6 stud male resulting in a robust new flavor profile. Astrochimp buds have triangle-shaped forest green nugs with thick orange hairs and a coating of tiny amber crystal trichomes. The strain exhibits significant stretch in flower, resulting in finishing plants that require branch support, with growers expecting stacked branches wrapped in colorful frosted kolas. The perfect head-spinning bud for any lazy weekend or late-night destressing session, Astrochimp packs a high level of potency and a super calming high.

Growing Information
Astrochimp can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 40 days (5-6 weeks) according to some sources, though other reports suggest 7-9 weeks for full maturation. Plants tend to remain stout during vegetative growth but exhibit significant stretch during flower, requiring branch support. Expected yield is moderate to heavy with colorful expressions and frostiness. The strain grows to a height of 30-78 inches and is considered moderate difficulty to grow. Training is recommended for increased yields, and growers should expect dense, frosty flowers that require support structures due to the weight of the colas.
